Title: Who'll Fall?
It's just the answering machine message with the chord progression below that always repeats.
You have to make a small pause after the end of it, as you can hear when you listen to
the song.
The progression is what mainly creates the atmosphere.

Dm Am Bm
Peter, a friend of mine's just committed suicide.
E Bm
Dm Am Bm E Bm
He was a great friend of mine, and it's... I've come back, and I heard that, and it's
shocked me a bit;
Dm Am Bm E Bm
and I wanna tell you because, um, not that you know him that's not the point.
Dm Am Bm E Bm
And he planned it out; he had a... he left his boyfriend... I mean, um, he left notes...
and things.
Dm Am Bm E Bm Dm Am Bm
But he... he threw himself off a cliff, Peter, and... I just wondered what you think
that feeling is like.
E Bm Dm Am Bm
E Bm Dm Am Bm
What happens, what goes through your head, between throwing yourself off, and actually dying?
E Bm Dm Am Bm
I wondered what you thought of it. Perhaps you could call me and tell me because it
would help me,
E Bm Dm Am
Bm
because I have a terrible fear of heights, and for me, just the idea of falling, so far,
and being alive...
E Bm Dm Am Bm
And I just wondered if things go through your head you know, people that you love, and
that, or things that
E Bm Dm Am Bm
you feel that you should've done flash before you, but you can't do anything about it.
E Bm Dm Am Bm
I just wondered what you thought.
You're probably the only person that I can call right now.
E Bm Dm Am Bm
And... I'd like to see you, because I think, in a funny way we're doing that...
E Bm Dm Am Bm
we're just... don't really connect.
E Bm Dm Am Bm x2
E Bm Dm Am Bm
One day, you know, you're gonna fall, or I'm gonna fall, or something's gonna happen;
E Bm Dm Am Bm
and... anyway. Well, I'm very sad. You know my number. Hope you're both well. Lots of
love. Bye.
E Bm Dm Am Bm repeated lots of times
